Question 1. Why Is SWIFT dominant in the global cross-border transaction platform

space? 

when there are multiple banks involved in the payment chain, and the
final leg needs to be cleared within the recipient country, the domestic
payments are sometimes delayed owing to the limited operating hours of
the local clearing systems. With the advent of real-time payments
systems, which typically operate 24/7, there is an opportunity to remove
these last frictions and ensure that these payments are credited in seconds
rather than hours.

Telecommunications, is a financial messaging service based in Belgium.
It facilitates rapid and highly secure payments between two countries via
a SWIFT code, enabling seamless international trade. Under Belgian
law, SWIFT is owned and controlled by its shareholders, representing
nearly 3500 financial institutions worldwide.
